the_axel booked our car and our room last night.

Guess that means we're going.

How long will you be down there for and how long is the drive? I'm still fantasizing about going.:P

We're taking a week to drive there and another week to drive back. We'll be doing lots of sight-seeing, you can do it faster if you push it.

We'll be in Portland Thursday to Monday.

Having done about 2/3 of the drive (Regina-Toronto) in 23 1/2 hours, I confirm that you really don't want to take less than a week, unless you feel like getting to Portland and being a complete zombie the whole time you're there.

We'll be leaving on Thursday, the 17th, driving via Michigan to Sault Ste Marie ('cos it's quicker) and then following the Trans-Canada Highway through Thunder Bay, Winnipeg, Regina, Calgary to Vancouver and then duck down the west coast to Portland, to arrive on the 24th.

We're in Portland from the 24th - 28th when we'll drive back to Toronto (probably visiting friends who live along the way).

If you were to drive there directly it's about 40 hours driving time, so 3 days with 2 people with licences & a little sleep.

I am insanely jealous...I would LOVE to make that drive.

I'm really looking forward to that part. :-)
